SWEEPING REDUCTIONS.
The Report of the irish Land Commls-

The Report of the Iri.h Land Commls-
sfon Creates a Sensation.
LONDON, Dec, 29.-The sweeping re-
duction of rents prescribed by the Irish
land commission has created a tremend-
GUS sensation in England, as well as in
Ireland. The average reduction Of IA
per cent. below the Judicial rents, or
dered by the commission, is equivalent
to a reduction Of e380, COO per annnm,
and of the annual capital value from
three to i've million. The action Of Com
m~issioners Lytton and French In signing
the order is severely criticised In many
quarters, while that OF Judge O'Hagan
IN appending a note of non-concurrence
is in the same circles. highly commended.
The Dublin Express, the Irish Tory or
gar, says the decision of the commits
sioners has given a tremendous shock to
interests in Irish landed property, which
must be felt for years TO come The
Irish Times, says. 1.-THE commission has
abated rents to u large extent without
the slightest thought OF q plan for SO do
ing, or a check to any evil effect that
may follow The Freeman's journal,
Nationalist, on the other hand, de-
nounces the commissions decision upon
entirely different grounds, saying; ssThe
decision dashes to the ground the last
faint hope of alienation. The reductions
prescribed are altogether too Inadequate
as a means of tiding over the difficulty
of the farmers, and from Whatever point
of view regarded, they are nothing else
than ludicrous. . From these comments.
which are fair examples OF the general
criticism, it Will be seen that the COM
missilin has succeeded In pleasing no
body!lslthough it may possibly be said
In its behalf that little short of absolute
abatement of rents would have satisfied
the one side, nor would the other have
felt right unless tho commission had
greatly increased the rents, instead of
reducing them.
Duelistic.
PARIS, Dec. q. M. Mayer, of the
Gaulois, has challenged Nj. De Wostyne,
formerly the Paris correspondent of the
New York Herald; for publishing certain
| articles in the Journal Parsienne and the
Courie Franeaise, rejecting upon him.
The dnei will be fought with swords.

Eardley's Bazaar.

This is one Of the business houses
started in Spokane whose success is
assured, although it has but just COM
pleted its first year. In selecting the
stock Of goods kept by the Bazaar,
Mr.. Eardlcy has supplied a long felt
want. Ladies had never been able to
obtain any Of the fancy yarns, such
as iced wool, fairy zepher, imported
Saxony, Spanish yarns ETC., or was
there complete stock OF embroider-
ing materials, or a stock of infants
wear until the Bazaar opened. Be-
sides the goods named, you will find
a good assortment of ladies' and
childrens' underwear, laces, ribbons,
ruchings, collars and cuffs, co1s O -
and bustles, in fact, nearly everything
required by ladies and children. The
motto of the Bazaar is 'lowest prices,
fair and equal dealing TO ALL" Mail
orders receive prompt attention. With
this motto and thor constant endeavor
to please, the bazaar will double its
trade during the year 1883.
